OpenDoor Trading (ODT), an early stage financial services platform, was looking for a cybersecurity expert to support the firm on an ongoing basis.

Through the Graphite network, ODT was quickly introduced to Eli D., a Harvard MBA and former McKinsey consultant with deep experience in cybersecurity, having spent years at McKinsey advising financial institutions on strategy and operations as well as launching his own cybersecurity firm. Eli proved to be the ideal candidate and provided key leadership and security insights for the ODT platform.
